Six acres ready for development

MEPC has completed the preparation of six acres of prime development land at Silverstone Park. The land is already included in MEPCs 2.1m square feet of new planning consent and can, therefore, accommodate a range of potential uses from a gym and a nursery to offices, industrial units and/or a hotel.

The six-acre site is situated at the main entrance to Silverstone Park, opposite its Innovation Centre and close to the Silverstone Grand Prix circuit.

MEPC's Roz Bird, Commercial Director at Silverstone Park, said: "The land is in a prime position, fully serviced and now available for companies looking to join our growing community at Silverstone Park.

"We wanted to clear the site and then re-present it in a way that hopefully helps to get people's imaginations going - what kind of activity could go in this prime location at Silverstone? The sky's the limit!

"We have a range of planning consent available, so there will be lots of different options to consider. We are hoping that the site clearance and the new CGI, showing a range of options, will be a conversation starter with interested parties.

"We would very much welcome initial conversations with anyone keen to explore the opportunity. They should contact me directly, Jon Silversides at Carter Jones or Jamie Catherall at DTRE."

Overall the number of companies across the Silverstone Park estate now totals 70 - many operate at the highest levels of high-tech engineering in sectors such as automotive, defence, marine, motorsport and electronics and software development.
